U.S. Senator Bob Corker, the Chairman of Senate Foreign Relations Committee intends to introduce legislation Friday giving Congress the power to review any nuclear deal with the Iranian regime, according to Bloomberg.<\/p>\n
The proposal would give Congress the power to block any deal that President Barack Obama’s administration reaches with Iran to curb its nuclear program by voting before an accord could take effect.<\/p>\n
This is while on Tuesday, the U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry signaled to Foreign Relations Committee members at a hearing that the administration would oppose any effort to give Congress an effective veto.<\/p>\n
Mr. Kerry warned that even pursuing the issue may complicate negotiations by making the Iranians less confident in Obama’s ability to honor an agreement.<\/p>\n
Kerry told the Senate committee: “Every nuance of what we do here, folks, I’m telling you, gets interpreted and usually in ways that make our negotiating life harder.”<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Corker, who traveled to Iraq last week, said the situation there was “really depressing.”\u00a0“It is disheartening in this way in that every single thing that we’re doing right now in Iraq is to Iran’s benefit,” he said.<\/p>\n
Corker broadly criticized the Obama administration’s approach to foreign policy, including its dealings with Russia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
